    RENNtech’s Mercedes SL65 AMG Black Series Fires 810 HP (604 KW)

    Despite being from the past decade, the Mercedes SL65 AMG remains one of the most desirable and respectable cars even today. For starters, it’s still the most powerful car the company has produced to date. Still, Renntech saw fit to give it an update by adding even more performance.

    In a time when the Mercedes-Benz and AMG were not fully established as ‘stand alone’ brands, engineers did not only suck out 250 kilograms off the standard SL65 (of which most is owed to by placement of a fixed roof), they also squeezed 661 hp (493 kW) and 1,000 Nm of torque into the 6.0-litre twin-turbo V12 to make the Black Series. The result was a 0-100 km/h time of just 3.8 seconds and a top speed of 320 km/h.

    While the performance figures were monumental back then, they aren’t as striking in today’s world. Perhaps this is why Renntech went through extremes to give the SL65 Black Series an update. Power has been upped to 810 hp while torque is now rated at 1,356 Nm. Drive still goes to the two rear wheels via seven-speed auto ‘box which the tuner has tweaked to handle the extra duty.

    Braking power has also undergone a few upgrades; the car now boasts larger rear brakes. Renntech has also kitted the SL65 Black Series with air ducts made from carbon fibre.

    Unfortunately, performance figures were not disclosed. This is rather disappointing as any gear head would die to know how the performance upgrades have improved the Mercedes, especially considering that it’s now more powerful than the Lamborghini Aventador SVJ.

    • Looks like the new Mercedes-AMG S 63 E PERFORMANCE was spotted testing in South Africa 🇿🇦

That start-up sounds pretty damn promising!

This thing packs a whopping 791 hp (590 kW) and 1,430 Nm of torque.

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
